Curious About Double Cleansing? Here’s What It Means for You!

Double cleansing is the dream team your skin has been waiting for: first, an oil-based cleanser to remove makeup and sebum, followed by a water-based cleanser to deeply cleanse and remove any remaining debris. This ensures your skin is truly clean and ready to absorb the full benefits of your skincare routine to follow. Using Pharmagel Nourish Cleanse is the perfect start to your double cleansing process. Nourish Cleanse uses 8 exotic oils, including Argan, Cranberry Seed, Marula, Safflower and Sunflower oils, that glide across the skin, removing makeup while it softens and nourishes dull, dehydrated complexions. These oils work together to help dissolve makeup, sunscreen and excess oils, leaving the skin soft and silky while also preparing the skin for a second cleanse using Hydra Cleanse.

Here are just a few of the benefits of using a two-step cleansing regimen to thoroughly cleanse skin without drying it out:

  • Effortlessly Removes Makeup & Impurities: Pharmagel Nourish Cleanse effectively removes makeup, dirt, sunscreen, sebum, and environmental pollutants that can accumulate on your skin throughout the day. By pre-cleansing with an oil-based cleanser, you ensure that the oily debris on your skin is dissolved and rinsed away, allowing your main cleanser to focus on washing away any leftover impurities, leaving skin clean and balanced.
  • Boosts the Effectiveness of Your Skincare: When your skin is free of buildup, your serums, moisturizers, and eye creams (like Pharmagel’s Pharma-C Serum, Eye Proté or Eye Firmé) can absorb better and work more effectively. A clean canvas allows ingredients to do what they’re meant to and provides more noticeable results.
  • Added Moisture: With 8 moisture-replenishing oils, Nourish Cleanse leaves the skin feeling soft and refreshed, creating a foundation for the next steps in your routine. It does not strip the skin of its natural moisture barrier, ensuring it stays balanced and moisturized.
  • Great for all skin types: While double cleansing is particularly beneficial for those with oily, acne-prone, or combination skin, it can also be helpful for those with dry or sensitive skin, especially when used in combination with Hydra Cleanse which uses oat extract and Panthenol to soothe and calm the skin.
  • Helps Maintain Skin's pH Balance: Pre-cleansing with a gentle cleanser like Nourish Cleanse helps preserve your skin's natural pH balance, preventing it from becoming too dry or too oily.

Add it to your routine to see the benefits!

Step 1 Apply a small amount of Nourish Cleanse to dry hands. Gently massage over face, throat and decolletage for up to 30-60 seconds.

Step 2 Add a small amount of warm water to fingertips to emulsify oil cleanser. Massage until oil turns to a milky consistency. Rinse with lukewarm water.

Step 3 Next apply Hydra Cleanse to damp skin, emulsify with warm water and rinse.

Step 4 Tone and continue with your favorite Pharmagel skincare routine.

Double cleansing isn’t just another step, it's about setting the foundation for healthier, more effective skincare that brings out the best in your complexion.
